Titanium Ore can be found either in Titanium Nodes (akin to finding Khorium Nodes, generally contains lots of other "goodies" too), or off of Rich Saronite Nodes.

Comentario de tehyosh

Is this as rare as Khorium?

Comentario de Zitarro

I wouldn't say this is as rare as Khorium, but Titanium gets *replaced* by Saronite. It remainds like when you mine Tin, its a chance that when you NEXT time are going to try to find it and then you see SILVER.

Edit: Forgot to say this. It has a CHANCE of becoming a Silver Ore / Vein. Not very high thou.

Comentario de Vexia

Akin to Eternium Ore and Khorium Ore, Jewelcrafter's are unable to prospect this stuff.

Comentario de DOCNFOID

Does anyone else find it ironic that titanium, a metal found on Earth as well, is apparently better than all these exotic metals like elementium, felsteel, and adamantite? It's also funny how Blizzard apparently uses "steel" as a suffix for any alloy.

Comentario de Sizux

One of the best places to find this is Wintergrasp. However, you are unable to use your flying mount, so it really depends. Getting honor while you farm is neat, though.

Another very good place is Icecrown, near the mountains to the NW and following them down.

Comentario de creiij

So this is pretty rare but after an hour grinding ore I found two nodes, giving me a total of 7 ore. They still sell pretty well at around 50g a piece on Eonar EU.

Finding one of these ores will probably make you a great deal of money for a small amount of effort.

Comentario de pezz

The ore doesn't sell that bad, but on my server at least you're a lot better off making Titansteel with this and selling that, if you really don't need it for yourself.

Comentario de ThyFlame

It has a high chance to give crystallized earth, water, air, or fire and has a strong chance of giving at least one green or blue gem per node.

Comentario de Thlop

Wintergrasp confirmed to be the best place to farm titanium, as well as loads of saronite, and a few gnomes.

Follow the mountains around the edge of the map, stopping off in the south east corner to kill any large elementals you find there for crystalized fires to help you with titansteel.

Comentario de giveimtehstick

So far Icecrown seems to be an ideal place. The center of the map forms kind of an inner ring connecting the various gates in the area. Just fly around, pick up every saronite node you see, and Titanium will spawn fairly often. Using this method I managed to pick up enough Titanium for my 2h epic mace with only around three total hours of farming. Plus the Saronite is still selling fairly well (55g per stack on my server) so it's a great way to make gold.

Haven't tried Wintergrasp yet, but I would imagine it's more of a pain without being able to use your flying mount as well as griefers from the opposite faction.

Comentario de Mumpley

I found quite alot of Titanium near The Broken Front and below Mord'rethar in Icecrown.

Comentario de Dekadez

I've seen a solid decline in Titanium veins the past couple of days, which I'm inclined to attribute to the great number of miners farming these nowadays.

When I do my tour of the Titanium-zones, there is hardly any vein (not even saronite) that is not being mined for between 10 am and 12 pm.

It would not be such a bad idea to either increase the spawntimer of these veins, or increase the amount of veins present on a map.

Comentario de xtopherix

I've been able to get a lot of titanium around the border of Icecrown and Storm Peaks, but I see the most saronite nodes around the middle of Icecrown (might respawn as titanium). In my opinion, you'd probably find the most titanium in areas where people mine a lot. More saronite going out: more titanium comming in.

Comentario de Taamas

Well i agree with alot what people say here. Titanium spawns on the same spawnpoints as saronite. So if you mine alot of saronite you will get more Titanium aswell. Though i do not agree that you are better of looking for it in places where people mine alot. You always get more if you are alone. It is simple math. Say 40 nodes divided to two people is 20 Nodes each. if you are alone you get them all. And you will still mine all those 40 Nodes, so you will have a better chance of getting titanium if you are alone... For those of you who can, i recomend mining during School/work hours.

Also my mining route is pretty simple: Follow the edge of icecrown in a circle twice. then head down to the basin and do the same. Then head back to icecrown. Repeat as needed.

A good tip to all miners: Get a pvp gear and us it while mining. I fight for my ores. and many others will. So make sure that if anyone tries to rob you of your ore, you can give them a serius beating

Comentario de intolerantape

Protection warriors try this: If there is a mob or enemy player near your node, don't charge. (Heroic throw if you need to interrupt the enemy players tap.) Just run up, line all of the offenders up in front of you, hover your mouse over the node, and Shockwave. Congratulations, you just snagged a node under impossible circumstances!

Comentario de Dujnk

what has happened to all the prices? on my server i could sell 20x for 295g now they go for 80g for 20x :S

I play on EU-hellscream

Comentario de cado1982

You need 450 mining to be able to mine Titanium Veins.

Comentario de Dragnis

Be careful if you mining Wintergrasp since it PvP zone even in PvE servers. That means opposite fractions can attack you or ambush you <sigh>. So while you mining someone can attack you before you start. Giving the advantage immediately to them, especially if they are rogue class. If everyone just respect that some characters are there for mining and gathering purpose then we can all get items faster, but not everyone like that. So be careful and I notice that some players on my server Rogue class litterly stay at a node and keep stealth mode on and try gank people as they try to mine. So be careful while mining and hopefully you got a kewl guild that will help you exact revenge.

Comentario de gostop

Buy them now when you have the chance. It's time to profit from patch changes again~

I'm buying out all the cheap to reasonable ores on AH as I write this. Hopefully demand will be insanely high as JCers will want to mass prospect on patch day!

Comentario de BurningBatsu

People are jumping the gun on my server, there is already stacks of titanium ore up for 500G a stack (and people BUYING it at that price, mainly ignorant people who have probably not realised that they will not prospect into guaranteed epic gems)

Comentario de Dokita

How much is it going for you guys on your servers?

I've been picking up a few stacks from around 60g to 80g, which seems reasonable to me.

Comentario de Taba

Epic gem prospect rate for titanium is the same as the blue gem rate for saronite. Each gem has a 6% chance to drop. This is ON TOP of the blue gems you get from Titanium, which have the same drop rate of 6% each. Green gem drop rates are about 30% higher than saronite, and you will get titanium dust around 70% of the time. The dust sells for a measly 1g per stack and currently has no recipes that require it.

Comentario de Yadryonych

Comentario de lefrance

Your assuming that you can only get one item per prospect which is not true. You chance of getting a gem of any color should be 100% since you will never only get titanium dust (I'm assuming this from the numbers posted and from my experiences prospecting Saronite).

Until we know more about how the loot table works the best we can do is simply give the chance that you will receive each item (epic, blue, green or dust) by treating each item as independent of the others. The percent drop rates can then simply be calculated by dividing the gems found by the number of times ore was prospected.

Here are the percentages I found from adding up all the data post above. The sample size is 366 prospects (1 per 5 ore).

So what do these numbers mean? They give the average number of each item you can expect to receive every time you prospect titanium ore. From this you can calculate your expected payback assuming you have price for each item from your AH.

For each prospect you should expect to receive about:

0.3005 Epic Gems0.2377 Blue Gems1.516 Green Gems0.6776 Dust

Since these are not whole numbers you obviously will not receive exactly this every time you prospect but this is the average you would expect to receive given a large enough sample. Assuming you will not receive more than one epic or blue gem, or one of each, the chance of getting an epic or blue gem will be 46.67%. This is easily found by subtracting the chance you receive neither from 100% as seen below.

1 - ((1 - 0.3005) x (1 - 0.2377)) = 0.4667 = 46.67%

As far as green gems goes the 151.6% means that roughly 50% of the time you will receive 1 green gem and 50% of the time you will receive 2 green gems, assuming of course that you receive AT LEAST one green gem every time your prospect.

Comentario de Athene

- Prospecting titanium requires jwc lvl 450.- 10 titanium dusts can be traded into 1 jwc token in Dalaran via a repeatable quest.- You may get 2 gems of the same quality from 1 prospect, including 2 epics.- You may get 2 of the same quality of more than 1 quality (ie 2x greens + 2x blues) in the same prospect, so you may get 4+ gems from 1 prospect.

Comentario de slim897

As of 3.2 you can prostpect Titanium Ore. I whent on the PTR with 305 ore (61 prospects) and managed to get the following out come.

Titanium Powder is added in 3.2 allowing Jewel Crafters another means of getting Dalaran Jewelcrafter's Token. You can turn 10 in for 1 token. 5 Tokens is the cost of the new patterns which can be bought from the Jewel Crafting daily quest giver.

These are rough estimates and i rounded to nice looking numbers. I hope this helps someone!

Comentario de WowheadPoster

A reasonable prediction for patch day is this ore will be through the roof for a good week or two price wise. Much like the patch that introduced inscription and the herb inflation, those who are long term AH investors would be extremely smart to buy up as much of this ore as possible over the weeks leading to Patch day, whether for prospecting oneself or for resale during the rush.

Just be careful not to pre-inflate the prices by overbuying the product; an overly dry AH is no one's friend.

Comentario de rowanr

Depending on the WoW economy it may be worthwhile prospecting (or getting a mate to prospect if you aren't a JC) your titanium ore instead of selling it, as the yields look fairly promising. Someone offered to buy stacks of my titanium ore today on a live realm for 250g per stack, so i assume epic gems will be same price as BC (around 2-300g).

Comentario de Unsurper

My understanding is this "underground" farming is done through the phase engine, people intentionally do not forward a quest line and remain in a phased aspect of the game, same node are present but you are both not present in the same phase, so when the other person is mining the node and you don't see them except if you use the combat log, the log will say s"xxxx" mines saronite node", not really a cheat but an exploit....ummm needs to be addressed but I doubt it will, fight fire with fire and roll another dk I guess.

Comentario de Onitar

the percentage are roughly 4-5% for every epic gem, honestly unlesss your in it for titanium powder (JC's) just sell the ore by the stacks for a pretty PRETTY penny, it's more economical, nothing more heartbreaking than to waste a whole stack and get no epic gems. A stack of ore in my realm sells for 400-500g FOR ONE STACK. While according to the charts, you have a chance of only getting 1 epic gems per stack, which typically sell for only 200g. Just do your JC dailies to buy the recipes, use honor from wg dailies to buy the gems, and sell the ore, in no time you'll be ruling the AH.

:)

Comentario de Onitar

Also an addition to the hacking conversation, I was mining a titanium vein, nobody was around me, but before I could finish, the ore disapeared and my toon said something like "that would be stealing"or something. Also people are hacking into the game as lvl 1 characters and somehow raising themselves in the air, very high, and droping themselves, do it with enough people and it spells a website. one is ign.com I think. More gold farmers...

Comentario de snowsun

I found that Wintergrasp and Icecrown generally give about the same Titanium Ore once i get started. I generally farm for about 3 hours on a 310% mount and the only reason i farm Wintergrasp more is because i kill the Revenants for extra crystallized stuff.

Hope this helps.

Comentario de ExEvolution

Seems that maybe there was a stealth prospecting nerf to Titanium Ore. I seem to rarely get epic gems now, but I always get a titanium powder.

Comentario de civgw

For me, Storm Peaks has been the best place to find titanium.

Most people seem to recommend Wintergrasp but for me it's been a waste of time and I've given up looking there.

Icecrown and Scholazar have been about the same as each other in success.

A lot of the ore I've found has been in one place in Storm Peaks called The Howling Hollow.

It's been so good that I almost expect to get a result there each time.

Just before I wrote this, I got two deposits there.

Happy prospecting

Comentario de kjell

Baught a bunch of stacks today to see if it at all is profitable if you sell the dust.Keep in mind these prices are dunemaul EU prices, they vary quite allot from server to server.

That gives about 830 gold profit if you sell the Titanium Dust and sell the gems uncut. Now imagine if you spend some time cutting them, a little work and such a moneymaker still.

Comentario de Shivacode

Thanks to the removal of the cooldown on Transmute: Titanium, you can now feel free to prospect this ore exclusively for epic gems and titanium dust!

Very nice change seeing as how my main is a JC/miner but still has need for titansteel for the new 264 pieces coming out.

Comentario de dragunknight92

After 3.3 went live, I prospected 6 stacks of titanium, and only recived 4 epics gems and 10 Titanium Powder + an assortment of greens and blues. I don't know if it was just my bad luck, or if the drop rate has been reduced (and Wowhead has not been updated to reflect this) , but since then I have been to aftraid to prospect more titanium. Can anyone comfirm if the drop has been reduced?

Comentario de Niasiini

Prospected 120 titanium ores yesterday.

Total of 7 epic gems.3 red2 orange1 blue1 yellow

Various uncommon&rare gems included

Comentario de bullandrood

I've found the best time/place to farm it is wintergrasp at 4 am +,the only time you really have competition then is around 30 mins after each battle

Comentario de Sharpsight

Incorrect; it's possible to get only uncommon gems when prospecting Titanium Ore. For example I just got Dark Jade, Huge Citrine and Titanium Powder when prospecting 5 Titanium Ore.You misread his post. He counted titanium powder as "not a green gem". He's suggesting that there are two separate drop tables for prospecting, one for green gems, and one for powder + blues + epics.

Comentario de Tedpurvin

Prospecting is learned if you are a jewel crafter ( not sure if its at 1 or higher ).

Every (about) 2 titanium ore you will get 1 Titanium Powder.

Titanium powder is used for dalaran jewlcrafter's token.

(10 Titanium Powder makes 1 dalaran jewlcrafter's token), A dalaran jewlcrafter's token is used for designes (each design costs 2,3,4,5 or 6 dalaran jewlcrafter's token) it is also used for dragon's eye.

Dragon's eye makes necklesses, rings, and gems which the jewel crafter can only use if he/she has a skill of 350 or higher.

Nightmare Tear on the other hand matches ANY socket and doesn't require jewel crafting. ( its NOT soulbound)

I'm sorry if this didnt help you or friends read other coments if you're not satisfied

Comentario de DaBigBadMojo

how much you sell it for?

Comentario de Mazovoid

I take it Titanium veins are damn-near impossible to find?

Comentario de Zeqp

I've found the best farming route is in WG where I start at the fortress, move east over to the horde camp. Continue to I see the shadow elementals, start heading towards the water and under the bridges. When I've passed all the bridges I head over where the fire elementals are. Then towards the WG fortess again. ROUTE HERE

Comentario de jacobbrua

The best farming route i have found is flying around the center of icecrown. i fly around the vykrul village and up to the bombardment. then i fly up the mountain to malykriss and then under icecrown citadel and then i go the the start. if i do this loop 3 times i get about 50 saronite ore and about 10 titanium ore so its pretty good

Comentario de vlaka

WG by far is the better farming location.Provided of course that there's no battle happening :P

Comentario de Murzik

2 hours farming in Wintergrasp: 20 ore.

1 hour farming in Icecrown: 0 ore.

Comentario de Xerc

Spent an hr in Sholazar Basin, Ice Crown, and Wintergrasp and have found Wintergrasp still to be the best place to farm Titanium ore. Was able to fly around and hit about 7 - 10 nodes before doing a complete circle.

Comentario de JumperBaltzer

Man I spent 2 hours flying around all of them and found almost nothing but Saronite deposits :(

Comentario de jram7

I was farming today for 20 minitues around wintergrasp and found 2 titanium vien

I utilized Gathermate and Gathermate 2 addons.. I had previously gone through Wintergrasp and hit the old nodes and new ones that I found along the way. I did submit a screen shot of my map, but it takes 72 hours for approval, haha. If it does get approved you will see the aqua blue/green saronite nodes and the silver titanium ones. Gathermate is, for the most part, reliable. At best I will find the ores, or it will be directly next to where it is suppose to be. At worst it has not spawned. Sometimes it says titanium when it is actually saronite, though. I believe this has something to do with in game mechanics where you have to farm that area a few times before the titanium spawns.

Good luck, hope that helps. I am needing the titanium for my mechano-hog. Still working on getting exalted with Horde expedition and saving gold for the parts. All the saronite I am farming I turn over to my husband (who has 525 Alchemy) and he transmutes it to titanium. Tedious, but better than paying AH prices.

Comentario de badweather

from what I understand by looking at the prospecting loot table , you cannot get Titanium Powder by prospecting this anymore, and the Titanium Powder quest is not even on wowhead even if Timothy still offers it in Dalaran, weird...

Comentario de bengrimm99

Flew around the old circuit in Sholozar today for 30 minutes...found 7 nodes of Titanium. I was actually starting to wonder if Blizz had upped the spawn on titanium. Probably just random luck.

Comentario de ShenTao666

These ores are so d**mn DIFFICULT to farm, not enough veins ;_;! I have farmed saronite like mad, spent 7 hours farming, SEVEN! and only got 3 Titanium veins... T-T

Comentario de togahsisoka

The best place by far is still Wintergrasp, but it seems like you get better results if your faction owns it. The other advantage is that it is a tighter circuit to go around than other zones and unless you are skipping nodes, they'll be back up by the time you get back to them.

HAVING SAID THAT it still sucks... one time around may get you 4 nodes, the next will not yield any...

Comentario de togahsisoka

Correction, it makes *NO* difference who owns Wintergrasp apparently, it's all in the RNG...

Comentario de alkemist

Wintergrasp is still the best zone to find titanium ore. I've spent plenty of time in Icecrown and Sholazar Basin and the spawn rate is no where as high and no where near as successful. The respawn time in WG is fastand the zone is smaller, so less travel time. I found it easiest to make a circular flight path around the zone. You do need to mine out all the saronite since titanium is a rare spawn from those nodes. Just beware, this is still a pvp zone. It was completely quiet since my faction controlled the zone but mileage may vary!

Comentario de hellisateenager

While farming Titanium for the chopper, I found quite a few titanium veins in Wintergrasp. With the help of my alchemist friend, and all of my saronite from farming I got my titanium/ titansteel much quicker!

Comentario de bezakovich

Wintergrasp at 5am ST when no one else is mining I got 17 titanium ore and enough sarionite to transmute into 10 bars in one hour. Fly the outside edge where the mountains meet the flat part.

Comentario de SunstrikesMione

I've had a lot of success farming this in Wintergrasp. Often 5 or 6 nodes in a row will be Titanium, and it's more often than not, it's totally deserted. Plus the path is short and quick. I was having a lot of trouble snagging nodes due to competition until I started farming here.

Comentario de colar

WG is somewhat unreliable since WoD came out. It's prone to shifting a lot and often times I found WG completely devoid of everything (walls, mobs, guards, and yes herbs and ores). It's been like this and I found it's just better to go elsewhere like Scholazar Basin to farm saronite and have alchemist xmute it all.

It sucks but until Blizzard figures out why WG keeps spazzing out, it may be faster and easier to farm elsewhere.

Comentario de Munee

As of today, Wintergrasp has suddenly refilled it's nodes with Saronite and Titanium ore. No idea why, since WoD dropped, I haven't seen anything here, but for now, it's back and I am farming this place like I have some sort of ailment and WILL die, and the only cure is to farm in Wintergrasp for an undetermined period of time.

Update 48 hours later (2/19/15): It's 1h 21m till the next battle, I have done one full route around Wintergrasp, but unlike my last entry above, not one node found with ore. I have no idea why it is there one day and not the next. Possibly because the nodes are only available at certain specific times, like an hour after a battle and up to 10 minutes before one begins, but that is just me sounding desperate for answers because I am watching the Proudmoore AH moving Barra de acero de titaness at between 400-500g per bar. I am remanded to sending piles of Barra de saronita to my alchemist to convert to titanium at a ratio of 8:1, so the time is off putting, despite the decent payoff.

Update, the very next run: Weird, the next run, the nodes popped up, half of them were titanium nodes. I collected 30 titanium ore in one round. Something weird going on. I often consider what I would do if I ran a company that produced an MMORPG like this. Just for kicks, I would pull rugs out from under the toons just to see the messages sent in about glitches. Mayhaps there is a Blizzard employee, most likely a high end exec. due to the access needed to gain entrance to certain environment control factors while in game. This is the guy who is messing with the nodes. So lets not just sit around and wait for him/her to be nice and click the button that makes the nodes appear, lets all buy one-way airline tickets to California and sniff out this flash drive wielding dork and take turns playing nostalgia as we each give him back to back to back to back wedgies, then laugh as his undershorts display what appears to be a smidgen of poo shaped as though at some point, they got up on their own, didn't look both way, and crossed a street only to be flattened by Flea of Red Hot Chili Peppers fame. And since he always dons his birthday suit on stage, he couldn't just run them over, but instead, he stopped with a wheel still pinning this poor piece of cloth to the road, and then with his gap tooth grin, sent forth an evil laugh as he slammed on the gas and watched in his rear view mirror as the act was accented by a long drawn out tire mark right down the middle of the garment, in the back. Then, the poor undershorts picked up his pride and carried it home to a VERY rushed and busy executive of Blizzard who had to screw with the titanium farmers today, so he quickly grabbed the closest pair of underwear that he could find. Hence the massive SKID MARK.....Except the skid mark was doody, not Flea's tire. The Flea part was just extra dramatic effect and his penchant for wearing nothing but his bass guitar strap on stage made him the perfect clothes hating maniac to besmirch our other villainous ne'er-do-well's underwear, Mr. Exec.
